Snakes on a Train: Alma (Julia Ruiz)

Comments for death : Snakes on a Train: Alma (Julia Ruiz).

Why didn't the shaman pray to his gods when the snakes first appeared?

your guess is as good as mine....more importantly, why didnt he try and remove the curse from Alma. The whole end sequence was very odd, and it seemed like the director was unsure how to end the film himself. I mean how is anyone on a train going to be able to get rid of a 1/2km long snake that is eating the train? One option would be to introduce the military, but obviously this would not make any sense, as they would not have had any involvement in the film up until that point.

Therefore the only option was an unforeseen act of god.
